Long time no see. Me and Heloise have been busy lately, moving houses in 2007, her looking for a job and applying for Dutch citizenship, me working hard in my semi-new job (almost 2 years now).
On Fabruary 29, we’re celebrating our first wedding anniversary! Well, we’ve been married 4 years, but Feb 29 only comes around every so often.
To honour the occasion, we decided to take a little city tour to Dublin. I’ve been to this lovely city a few times already, absolutely love it. For Heloise it’ll be a first, and she’s quite excited. She even has some Irish blood in her, believe it or not, in a Phil Lynott kinda way.
We’ll arive on Thursday the 28th, and we will leave on Sunday March 2nd. Of course, we’d love to hook up with the usual Dublin suspects for a pint of the black stuff. So let’s hear it!
That was nekkid balcony woman aged circa 83. :eek:
Damn, I haven’t had that image in my head for ages. Thanks man!
We’re doing all right. Moved to the suburbs, since we’re old and boring now.
I’ll try to stick around, so many new names though. But some familiar ones as well.
I’ll put in a word for Coldie and Heloise as being delightful company – esp. since Coldie picked up the tab when I had lunch in Amsterdam with them last spring.
Hiya Peter, good to hear from you! Yeah, it would be nice to meet up with the old gang. When was that first DubDope, 2000 or so? Man how time flies.
We’re there for three nights, but on the 29th we’ll probably be doing the romantic thing. Restaurant suggestions are welcome.
I guess Saturday night would be ideal for a get together. And hey, Thursday’s cool too, if you can make it on a school night.
Looking forward to those great Dublin pubs again. Smoking outside thise time, of course. That way I can get used to what my country will be like after June 1st.
And yeah, yojimbo, we’ve gone all PC too now. Feckers even banned mushrooms because some French git jumped off a bridge whilst under the influence.
We might as well be Jersey with legal hookers by now.
So much for the last bastion of fun. At least in Europe, anyway. Ahhhh, let’s not overdramatise. I’m sure a pint of Guinness still tastes the same, when within a stone’s throw of St. James’ Gate.
We actually were selling mushrooms as well untill some gobshite jumped out a window to his death after freaking out while playing Trivial Pursuit. Who the fuck plays that while tripping. Bill Hicks hit the nail on the head. “Fuck him, we just lost a idiot”
Damn, you almost made it, and some eedyit had to fuck it up. Typical.
10 bonus points on the Hicks quote.
Oh and jjimm thanks for the shout out. See that you’re back in merry olde England again? Too bad, wouldn’t have minded buying you a pint. Isn’t the misses missing the green isle a bit?
